TAILIEUCHUNG - Báo cáo khoa học: Interactions of HIPPI, a molecular partner of Huntingtin interacting protein HIP1, with the specific motif present at the putative promoter sequence of the caspase-1, caspase-8 and caspase-10 genes

To investigate the mechanism of increased expression of caspase-1 caused by exogenousHippi, observed earlier in HeLa and Neuro2A cells, in this work we identified a specific motif AAAGACATG ()101 to)93) at the caspase-1 gene upstream sequence where HIPPI could bind. Various muta-tions in this specific sequence compromised the interaction, showing the specificity of the interactions. | ễFEBS Journal Interactions of HIPPI a molecular partner of Huntingtin interacting protein HIP1 with the specific motif present at the putative promoter sequence of the caspase-1 caspase-8 and caspase-10 genes P.

Various mutations in this specific sequence compromised the interaction showing the specificity of the interactions. In the luciferase reporter assay when the reporter gene was driven by caspase-1 gene upstream sequences - 151 to - 92 with the mutation G to T at position - 98 luciferase activity was decreased significantly in green fluorescent protein-Hippi-expressing HeLa cells in comparison to that obtained with the wild-type caspase-1 gene 60 bp upstream sequence indicating the biological significance of such binding. It was observed that the C-terminal pseudo death effector domain of HIPPI interacted with the 60 bp - 151 to - 92 upstream sequence of the caspase-1 gene containing the motif. We further observed that expression of caspase-8 and caspase-10 was increased in green fluorescent protein-Hippi-expressing HeLa cells. In addition HIPPI interacted in vitro with putative .
